Redemptive Revenge

Review by Chris Szepessy, Windcheck Magazine

In Greg Gilmartin’s first novel, Crew, sailor PJ McDonough and his shipmates tangled with a ruthless South American drug lord named Carlos Quintaro. PJ and his crew ultimately destroyed Quintaro’s enterprise in the mountains of Columbia, and a final showdown seemingly sent the bad guy to his doom. But Quintaro has survived, he’s created a new drug, and with vengeance in his heart he’s brought the fight to Fishers Island Sound to expand his empire and avenge PJ’s crew.

In this exciting sequel, set during the Flying Foiling 50s Grand Prix regatta in New London and later on Block Island, PJ, Stoney, Lenny, Mickey, Dave and Kathryn find themselves in another fight for their lives as they seek their own redemption for the murder of a teammate. Like Gilmartin’s other books including Spy Island, Can’t Sail in Jail and Castle Fires, Redemptive Revenge (with menacing artwork by Courtney Moore at CMB Creative gracing the cover) is a first-rate thriller and highly recommended.

Born in the shadow of the Parachute Jump at Coney Island in Brooklyn, NY, authorpreneur Greg Gilmartin is a writer, director, producer, and an inveterate Mudhead. The public address announcer for the Hartford Whalers for many years, he is the creative force behind MYSTV Studios, producing the MysticView TV, a travelogue broadcast in hotels for tourists in Newport, RI and Hartford and Mystic, CT. He resides in southeastern Connecticut. The movie production of his fourth novel, Castle Fires, is currently in production.
